"Hexagram 64" is a 1985 woodcut by Ukrainian artist Oleksandr Aksinin, who tragically died that same year. The artwork features a stylized landscape with a series of tall, narrow forms resembling towers or trees, set against a deep red background. The composition is tilted, creating a sense of instability. The artist’s signature, dated 1985, is visible in the lower right corner. This work is characteristic of Aksinin's artistic vision, known for its symbolic and abstract nature. The title suggests a connection to the ancient Chinese philosophy of the I Ching, where the hexagram 64 represents "Before Completion," a state of transition and transformation.
